This special Manchego is aged for over 12 months, giving it a sharper, nuttier flavor, and a firmer, more brittle texture than its younger namesake. It is produced in Central Spain's La Mancha region; a territory known for its fierce winds, violent temperature swings, and desert-like aridity. Manchego Reserve is made using traditional methods under strict quality guidelines. We especially love this cheese served with Rioja wine and fresh fruit.

Having a Mexican Fiesta to mark our Mazatlan adventure we had to have the authentic cheese and no market near us carries it. It was developed and had a wonderful creamy, but piquant taste. I highly recommend it!

excellent cheese

I was introduced to this cheese at [ ]. They stopped carrying it so I checked the internet and was reminded of igourmet. I had made purchases of various items years ago and forgotten just how good a selection they had when I checked their website. I was more than pleased with this cheese - it was better in every way than that I had purchased at [ ] (and their quality is always very good), shipping was fast and packaging was exceptional. I have made many more such purchases from igourmet and will continue to do so. They can't be beat for quality and exceptional service.

wake's up the taste buds

Sharp but really flavorful. A little "grainy" to the texture. Definitely has the nuttier full flavor described

One of my favorites!

This is one of my favorite cheeses to snack on. 12 months is the perfect aging for Manchego.

Goes great with a good chorizo or sardines, bread and serrano ham etc.
